  1. Carboy0 - how is your EFI project coming on?
  2. Does the club sell these oil guns (show link please as I cannot find it) and if not, where is a good source to buy one?
  3. Thank you all for the very good suggestions. Much appreciated. From the electrical aspect of the fitting, would a relay be of any benefit and if yes, what size should I purchase?
  4. And where can I find a metal plate to replace the old mechanical pump?
  5. I'll be going for this I think. Surprising that there are many similar facet models going fro much cheaper than that and look the same - maybe chinese cheapo copies!
  6. Thanks for this but it does not seem to be compatible with the Mk4 (or GT6 for that matter)
  7. Yes definitely. I have a battery isolator very close at hand while driving but I suppose that something that works while I am otherwise occupied is a safe investment!
  8. I plan to convert my Mk 4 to an electric fuel pumo soon.  What would be a suitable pump which is fit for purpose?
  9. I did n't know they changed sides midway in production. For sure it's more comfortable from the driver's side!
  10. Yes that metal is very hard indeed. No impression at all with my drill. Went to an engineer and was ready in 30 seconds! I'd be interested in 15" wheels  - some pics please??
  11. I am thinking of fitting an additional cable for the bonnet catch as the consequences of the original one snapping are too nightmarish to think of. I saw the following set-up at the Cardiff Car Show. Looks very good but would like to see other set-ups if possible. Thanks in advance
  12. It's not for me - for a friend of mine who is not a Club Triumph member (yet).  He has a 1969 MK 1. Can I send you his email address by pm so you two can discuss directly?
  13. new, reburbished?  Details please
  14. I have a friend who is seeking a new or refurbished brake servo for his 2000 Mk 1. Any suggestions please?
  15. Problem has been solved far more easily than I expected. Yday I decided to isolate the thin brown/yellow wire and checked the battery drain again. This time it went to zero. That narrowed down the possibilities considerably. I then replaced the ignition bulb in the cluster just to make sure that it is a working bulb. Reconnected the br/yellow wire to the original connection in the car's harness (see my post above) - the one which when connected the first time to the new alternator, produced no charge when starting the engine! I was expecting the same result this time round but amazingly, the ignition light came on when I first turned the key and the voltmeter started climbing when I started the engine! I am a bit baffled how it has sorted itself out but am very happy with the result and definitely won't complain! I left the battery connections on and this morning the battery read a healthy 12.6v
